It comes from a literary marriage of science fiction (generally cyberpunk) and Victoriana. You get technologically advanced, but with more steam engine than our world utilized. The fashion tends to be a mix of Victorian inspiration and more modern tech, clockwork pieces incorporated a plus, partly in tribute to H.G. Wells time travel and the concept that steampunk fashion is a sort of time travel. It is not new.
Here are some photos Forrest Black and I shot with steampunk themes:
